Ford has recently been installing in-line fuses in the brake pressure switch harness, under a recall. The recall affects only certain models (F150 and a couple more). I have two vehicles with the same 'always hot' switch, but mine are not covered by the recall. Don't know how Ford determined that even with an identical design, these are less fire- prone, but I am planning to add the in-line fuse anyway. Does anyone know if these fused jumpers are available for sale? If not, any clue what is the rating of the in-line fuse? (Allegedly, the switch was only designed for 1A, so it's probably not more than that).
